WDFN 1130AM Dave Cowens Interview May 15 2007

Dave Cowens talked with Stoney & Art Regner this afternoon. Talks about the "necessary rage", the Bulls, Chris Webber etc.

As always, a super interview from a great Hallway Coach.

Re: WDFN 1130AM Dave Cowens Interview May 15 2007

from ESPN.com: Page 2 : Common sense vs. the NBA rulebook :

In fact, when I was a little kid -- and I swear to God, this happened -- a guard named Mike Newlin flopped to draw a charge from the great Dave Cowens, a fiery Hall of Famer who played with a remarkable level of passion and fury, to the degree that he burned himself out after 7-8 years. Completely and utterly outraged that Newlin committed such a phony act of sportsmanship, Cowens berated the ref who made the call, yelled at him some more, then started running back on defense when he noticed Newlin dribbling up the court. Now, our seats were at midcourt, so this happened right in front of us and nearly caused me to pee my pants -- as Cowens was running, he snapped and suddenly charged Newlin like a free safety, bodychecked him at full speed (much, MUCH harder than Horry's foul on Nash) and sent poor Newlin careening into the press table at about 35 mph. Then he turned to the same ref and screamed ...

"NOW THAT'S A F------- FOUL!"

simmons also complains about the hinrich flop, and flopping in general, and blames it on the influx of european players, who are used to it from soccer and accept it.

Blame it on the europeans.

Only 1 thing is certain. If the refs didn't call fouls for those flops, they wouldn't be happening.

The guy would be left on his ass looking like a tool and his man would be scoring a layup.

Its all part of Stern's new-age soft NBA.
